I am Director of Electronic Distribution at Standard & Poor's/McGraw-Hill.
Before that I was director of Alternative Electronic Distribution at Dow
Jones & Co.  I was responsible for causing and completing distribution via
Sattellite (Mainstream), CD-ROM, Corporate WAN->LAN(DowVision) and 
Internet(WAIS) as a function of the DowVision product.  I coordinated 25
Dow Jones Staff and 45 corporations (Alliance Developers) to create 
servers for these products.  The circulation has doubled every 6 months.
